Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned! - Chapter 408

Episode 408

Before I even figured out the identity of the voice, a story that I couldn’t readily relate reached my mind.

I narrowed my eyes to identify the voice’s protagonist.

It wasn’t a normal existence, the voice of the moment before was enough for the coercion.

It is not the intimidation of a simple strongman.

It was the feeling of intimidation emitted by the superior object of the species.

Wasn’t there something similar to that?

Dragon words, a privilege unique to the race used by dragons, and revelations from the gods.

The voice that looked at me like a voyeur from the beginning, not Perserk or the world capital, spoke to me very quietly.

[Do you need help? A savior with a high degree of perfection.]

“First of all, why don’t you tell me who you are?”

[Hoh…. You’re not afraid.]

I was about to say something to that calm voice.

[The cost of oblivion was inflicted on the remaining humans at the borders of the world.]

At that, I fell silent.

[What should I do? If you help me a little, I’ll help that little girl.]

“I believe in you.”

[It is your freedom to believe.]

The whispered tone was full of unknown feelings.

I could tell from the first conversation that he was a transcendent being.

However, it was not possible to confirm its identity because there were still too few clues to identify it.

The power of the title given to me by the god Pria mainly requires an equivalent exchange. A way to manifest something miracle based on a certain cost.

Arya’s memory has already been erased in return for saving her life.

So, everything that happened after this was not against the will of God.

The deal is done rightly.

Any more than this is at my discretion.

“Tell me in detail.”

While pressuring Perserk, I let go of the coercion I was exerting on her in an instant, and her escorts took advantage of that opportunity to flee with her, but I didn’t bother pursuing them.

This is because there is no reason to suck your fingers to try to deal with someone you can’t touch.

* * *

After the demons left, the sacred ground of the sacred tree, which was in ruins, was filled with silence again.

I don’t feel particularly sorry for the demons.

As I always said, it was a case where I hated the dwarves more than the demons.

“First of all, how about revealing your appearance?”

I gave a clear answer to my words.

[I have no form. The whole world is my eyes and my ears, so there is no problem with hearing and seeing. okay. Would you call me a contemplative?]

A contemplative?

It’s the first title I’ve ever heard of.

Even as I thought so, I continued to look around and explore.

But, as he said, there was no sign of anything.

[Look at that. It would be impossible for me to find myself, so how will someone else find me?]

“As a contemplative…”

[For now, it’s just that. Yes, would you consider my proposal?]

“I don’t have much faith.”

All you hear is your voice When talking to an unknown person, a hasty decision is also a law that causes anger.

[Isn’t it more strange to

blindly believe? Besides, it won’t be free.”

At my words, the observer expressed affirmation.

[As I said before, I don’t have a body. You have eyes and ears, but there are things you can’t do with them. So I want you to find something for me.]

At his words, I fell silent.

Then, after thinking briefly, he summoned Megarodria and climbed on its back.

“Let’s go back. I’m done with all my business here.”

At my words, Megarodria slowly flapped its four wings, as if there was no reason to reject it.

Then, at high speed, it flew up into the sky.

[Before that, I’d better tell you the things you need to keep in mind here.]

The voice came to me quite favorably.

[You are an outsider. It was an uninvited guest who did not come with great will. In that respect, there is a clear limit to how much influence you can exert here.]

I just listened quietly to those words.

[The influence has already reached its limit due to the World Tree, but if the demon king is also touched, the story will become more complicated.]

“Are you saying you can’t go back?”

[Nine out of ten likely.]

“I’m not sure.”

I mumbled that, but I knew it myself. Actually, I saw Reina’s case.

She was a case of passing from another world to my world with the intention of the goddess Freea, but even so, there was a limit to the exercise of influence, and her existence itself was fading away.

“Don’t touch me…”

It wasn’t a sane world in the first place, so it wasn’t without possibilities.

“How are you going to help Princess Aria’s memories?”

It flew through the sky at an incredible speed and had already flown to the southern part of the eastern continent.

It was like crossing a huge continent diagonally, but Megarodria didn’t show any signs of getting tired even after flying at that speed, befitting a phantom beast with the title of the Dragon King of the Storm in the Sky.

Landing on Balkas, the first time I met demons and black dragons, I put Megarodria back into the card and jumped over the rift.

[Won’t you swear before that? If you help me, you will help me too.]

I told you how to save me, but you can’t get hit in the back of the head with that.

I was silent for a moment without answering his suggestion.

And when Aria went up to the deck of a huge ship that was sleeping.

I could see Eria sleeping and the crazy clowns doing something around her.

“Stop moving.”

The guys who were twitching with a strange laugh in my voice stopped.

Then, as if it was broken, he moved his head slowly and stiffly to look at me.

“I would have told you to keep quiet.”

At my words, the two guys startled and backed off.

However, one guy tried to hide Aria from my gaze until the end.

What did you do while I was gone?

Even those who are faithful to their desires will not be without discernment at all.

With that thought in mind, I approached and desperately looked at the clown who was covering Aria’s face.

“Get out of the way when you say nice things.”

“Hwa… Hwahahahahaha!”

She tries to defuse the situation with a strange smile.

My hand had already grabbed his shoulder.

Synchronization disappeared as it crossed the veil again.

But even if I returned to my original strength, I wasn’t weak enough to be pushed back by each one of them.

Courage!

I roughly shook him off and looked at Aria’s face and frowned.

[Spirit bodies are really fun.]

The observer who followed me all the way to this place openly burst into laughter as to what was so interesting about such a situation.

Although I don’t think the old man who bursts out laughing like this is a transcendent being, that is, a god-level being.

Either that or not, I muttered as I pressed my eyes with one hand.

“Pump all three heads.”

Aelia’s face was grotesquely scribbled with charcoal she didn’t know where she got it from.

Circles were drawn on the eyes, the part of the nose that was white was painted black, and on the cheeks were painted something unknown whether it was a beard or something.

* * *

Tadadadadadadadadak!!

“Move forward 20 meters.”

I said nonchalantly as I wiped the face of Aria, who did not wake up even in this situation, with a cloth dampened with water.

Then, the guys who were banging their heads on one side in the Wonsan bombing position start to advance slowly while struggling.

“The slowest one adds 40 meters.”

At my words, the clown with the bastard sword on the far right twitched his butt and pushed them aside.

Cudangtang!!

The guys who fell due to their colleague’s betrayal accompanied by a snarky sound looked at them in disbelief, but the clown who already had a bastard sword didn’t miss the opportunity and moved forward quickly.

They are the ones who have lost their hair anyway.

I didn’t care because there was no way I would lose my hair if I moved forward with my head.

After realizing that they were being held back, the two guys chase after them, but it was not easy to close the distance again.

I heard a voice as I carefully wiped Airi’s face, leaving the rivals behind me.

[Is that girl precious?]

“…”

It must have been a simple relationship between a doctor and a patient.

In fact, I didn’t even talk much with her.

However, it is also true that I keep worrying about it.

It was like having a child who couldn’t be left alone.

[Tsk tsk, my head is full of idle thoughts. Where did all the endless power, emptiness, and madness that I showed before crossing the curtain go?]

“Power has a price.”

At my words, the observer chuckled.

“so. I want you to tell me how to get your memory back.”

[Shouldn’t we make a promise before that?]

“Don’t you know that it’s human beings who can break verbal promises at any time?”

[At least I think you’re different.]

He’s quick to notice.

“As long as it doesn’t harm me.”

[I swear it’s not like that.]

I quietly affirmed that.

“good. Let’s try to find one. There are about two days left.”

At my words he was silent.

[Good. That’s enough. It doesn’t matter if you’re looking for it now. Anyway, you will be forcibly kicked out of this place in about 48 hours, but as long as I can see you, there is a way to come back.]

He put his request on hold without regret.

[The child’s soul must have settled again at the cost of memories.]

It was the moment I was trying to explain quietly.

“Um…”

Aria’s voice groaned briefly, so the observer chose silence instead of explaining, and I asked as I hugged her as she slowly opened her eyes.

“Are you coming to your senses?”

“Kyaaak!!”

And the reaction I heard was different from usual.

Elia, who was startled and staggered away from me, withdrew from me with a frightened face.

“Who are you!?”

Her memory was slowly fading away.

And after passing out once, she paid in full for the memories she treasured most.

forgot everything about me

She had been screaming that she never wanted to go through this reality.

Knowing that fact, it was bittersweet to actually see it.

The moment I tried to answer something.

A clear tear fell from Aria’s eyes as she looked at me.

“what?”

As if she didn’t understand herself, a mysterious voice that she couldn’t understand came out of her mouth.
